Windows 7: Many Programs Don't Have Internet Access

Hi, recently i opened my internet browser and it said unable to access a proxy server, but i don't use one. I disabled it and i could access the internet again. :) My web browser works but many things dont, they just won't connect.

I have no idea what is happening. I am running a full scan with avast now.

Many of my programs can't seem to access the internet?Hi everybody, first post here ;) So naturally it's a problem.
